Switch on your career in electrical and electronic engineering at The University of Manchester. We're home to one of the largest departments dedicated to the subject in the UK, have fantastic links with industry, and have taught the discipline here since 1905. More than 100 years later, we continue to help solve the day's biggest energy problems. The use of electricity, for example, is fundamental to modern life. Without a secure supply, society in its current form would collapse. Consequently, the importance of efficient and sustainable generation, secure distribution, and intelligent user devices cannot be overstated. This will be a lifetime challenge facing the next generation - and electrical and electronic engineers have a vital role to play.In the final year you will complete a team project directly funded by industry or inspired by industrial needs. Past projects have included developing an instrumented training wheelchair for para-athletes, creating a haptic glove for remote handling, and developing a cyber-secure electricity management system in smart cities.

Each application is considered individually. Applicants should contact the Admissions Office to discuss their particular circumstances.Our standard academic requirements include 60 credits in an engineering related subject, with 45 credits at Level 3 with a Distinction grade. A minimum of 15 credits must be in Mathematics. Students are also required to have a grade A in A-level Mathematics with a pure element.
AS level results are not considered as part of the standard admissions process at The University of Manchester.
D3 in three Principal subjects, including Mathematics and either Physics, Further Mathematics or Chemistry.We also consider applicants offering Pre-U Principal Subjects, or a mix of Pre-U and A-level subjects, in three distinct subjects.The University welcomes and recognises the value of the Cambridge Pre-U Global Perspectives and Research (GPR) and the opportunities it provides for applicants to develop independent study and research skills. However, the qualification will not form part of your offer conditions.
The University recognises the benefits of the Extended Project Qualification (EPQ) and the opportunities it provides for applicants to develop independent study and research skills. Although the Extended Project will not be included in the conditions of your offer, we strongly encourage you to provide information about the EPQ in your personal statement and at interview. A number of our academic Departments may also choose to take your performance in the EPQ into account should places be available in August for applicants who narrowly miss the entry grades for their chosen course.
36 points overall with 6,6,6 in Higher Level subjects, including 6 in Mathematics, 6 in Physics or Chemistry, and 6 in one other Higher Level subject.For this programme of study we will accept: Higher Level Mathematics: Analysis and Approaches or Mathematics: Applications and InterpretationApplicants studying the International Baccalaureate Career Related Programme (IBCP) should contact the academic School prior to applying so that their academic profile can be considered.
We consider the Cambridge Technical Diploma for entry provided it is in Engineering with grades DD in combination with a grade A in A level Mathematics.
We consider the Cambridge Technical Extended Certificate for entry in any subject at grade D provided it is in combination with two A levels at grades AA including A in Mathematics and A in either Physics, Electronics, Further Mathematics, Computer Science or Chemistry.
